NOTE: This is only intended to prove a point. please do not interpret this any other way. no name calling or bashing of any kind. this is only intended for those who claim there is no "proof" that global warming is accelerated.

now, for all the people who say they dont believe in global warming because there is no solid proof, i ask if you believe in God? there is no proof that has ever been covered that absolutely proves that God exist. yet many people believe in God, but not global warming. i know these are two totally different ideas, but can you at least see my point? global warming is something that really cant be proven until we hit another ice age, or half of our planet is flooded. and God cannot technically be proven to exist until you die and meet Him. anybody see the analogy?

The phenomenon of global warming is not deniable. The earth has been warming since the last ice age about 20,000 years ago.

What is at dispute (or should be) is what the cause is.

Considering that in the last hundred years we've have been warned of global warming twice and global freezing twice the scientists need to get read on the problem and then decide what is causing it. Is it solar activity and what impact is man having on it?

There is no definitive evidence it is worsened by carbon dioxide emissions or if general air pollution is the aggravating factor.

So how exactly does my faith in a higher being concern my belief that scientists are ignoring the question of the cause of global warming? This is not like the 1500's where people were branded heretics for not believing the world was flat or the earth was not the center of the universe. Science has not exactly been on the mark in the past century regarding this topic and despite advances in technology they still fail to make a persuasive argument.

Much like there are people who are theists, and others who don't believe, there will be global warming alarmists and those who ask for proof.

I see your point. To me the question is "Are we just in a cycle?". because before your time there was a fear that we would end up in a global winter because of our Fossil Fuel problem? Winter or Summer? If that was only a little while ago? We have not had cars for that long. Shouldn't we see if we can pinpoint the true nature of nature before we wildly say how much we are affecting this yet. I honestly thought that when people say "I do not believe in global warming". they are really saying "I do not believe global warming is purely the humans doing or as much the humans doing." The Bible has scripture talking about poisoning of the water. lands that will not yield crops.

I am not trying to insult you, but I do have to say you did a pretty good job of displaying a lot of ignorance!
We have been in a warming trend for over two hundred years! Ever since the "Little Ice Age" that devastated many parts of the World! These warm periods are actually boom times for people!
Just like the period before the Little Ice Age, we are experiencing huge population booms and very healthy states of being!

God, is both the Good and the Bad! Angels and Devils are the minions of God! Yin and Yang!

Fear a major set of Volcanic occurrences! They will trigger the next Ice Age. Then you will very quickly come to realize that warm weather is a blessing as disease, famine and death become the NORM again!

God gives, and it Takes AWAY as well!

Actually, my belief in God helps eliminate the need for global warming. Do you really think God would let everyone die from global warming if that wasn't His plan? Either way, it's bigger than us, so why so much worry?

Fact is, global warming is not a scientific proof that requires us to act or face extinction. It's a political device to push liberal philosophy, since logical arguments fail to confuse more of the population than it has already.

There is a serious flaw in your question.

There are mountains of evidence that global warming is happening. There is also mountains of evidence that mankind has accelerated the process.

There is zero evidence of any god or any religion.

Your point should be that if you believe in a god without any evidence, why wouldn't you believe in global warming with the evidence that has presented itself?

Global Warming is real.

funny you should ask that.

In science, there can't be consensus. if you stop and think, science is not about the most people who will agree to a proposition, that makes the proposition so. If that were science, why, we'd still have the earth being flat and the sun orbiting around the earth. Consensus simply cannot have any place in science, and if the global warming crowd continues to pulverize and sell it on the basis that there's consensus, that ought to tell anybody who understands the English language that there isn't any science in it, that it is all politics. This global warming issue is the essence of liberalism versus conservatism. Global warming, militant environmentalism, militant animal rightsism, is nothing more, those things are nothing more than opportunities for communists, socialists, people that support dictatorships, to empower elements of society they think are important, government, statism, and this sort of thing, and every element of conservatism versus liberalism is to be found in the global warming debate. It's amazing, in fact, the left out there decrying devout Christianity or Catholicism or anything of the sort. They are as religious about what it is they believe as anybody else. They are as intolerant of people who disagree. They also have to rely on faith. Faith is that which is not provable. In order to accept belief in something, you must have faith if it can't be proved. That sums up the left's association and attachment to global warming. It represents an opportunity for liberals to do everything they want to do in terms of controlling and limiting freedom and liberty. They blame the American people and civilized peoples all over the world for destroying the planet. They infuse everybody with as much guilt for destroying the planet and how is this guilt ladled out? It is ladled out on the basis that your lifestyle is too rich, that your lifestyle is based on greed, that your lifestyle is based on selfishness, and it's also based on the fact that you don't care about anybody else but yourself, that you are damaging the planet in the process. They have to get hold of you to save the planet, their god.

They have to get hold of you to save their religion. In the process of making you feel guilty, you will support massive increases in the size of government and state, in order to fix the problem that you have caused, and you will gladly fork over more and more taxes to do this while in the throes of your guilt. Global warming is nothing more than a scheme, particularly the manmade characteristics of global warming, the desire for them to make you believe, the attempt to make you believe that you're causing it. Every argument, fundamental and otherwise, that we make in the discussion of liberalism versus conservatism can be found in that issue

I believe in God...if you are really a Southerner like me, you know why we do...I know the world is warmer than what it was 20 years ago, but dude, they can not predict tornadoes, how can they say the earth is getting warmer...I think it is just a cycle that the earth is going through and has gone through...remember the Ice Age, there had to be global warming to get rid of that right...I just see it as the Liberals way to say we need to raise taxes to fund "Global Warming" projects...and then funnel that money to their Friends...are you really a Southern Democrat or a Yankee transplant? lol

I don't believe in god and I do believe in global warming, that is to say I believe in the natural cycle that we are in that is causing our planet to warm. I do not believe man has a significant affect on global warming.

Weak analogy, because a belief in God does away with the scare tactics and lies that scientist make up to explain natural patterns that occur with the earth and the atmosphere

I believe in Global Warming because it is based on a Scientific Method that is purely mathematical in nature (difficult to dispute mathematical theories).

I don't believe in God because he is a concept. There is no scientific, tangible or physical proof of his existence.
